For our first web seminar of 2017, we are venturing into the world of motor racing! Heat exchangers are used across a wide range of applications in the automotive and motorsports world. In addition to adhering to the constraints of tight installation conditions, every little gain in performance is demanded.

Join this webinar and find out first-hand how easy it is to access and use OpenFOAM for turbomachinery apps in the Cloud to improve your product design, resulting in ten to hundred-fold speed-ups, allowing for complex geometries with fine meshes processed in less time.

Join Numeca on January 12th for an interesting webinar about the processes and software solutions used to design the boats for this year's Hydro Contest. A contest aimed at designing, building and piloting the most energy efficient boats, the road towards a more energy efficient marine future.

Turbulent wind loads are prevalent across a myriad of engineering structures, whether as micro-climate – terrain interaction,inducing locally strong gusts on village houses, or a Wind Turbine farm, to hurricane weather systems, dangerously buffeting cranes perched on high rise buildings, under construction, across the Miami skyline.

MSC Software Ltd. and Software Cradle Co., Ltd. have announced that MSC Software Corporation has acquired all of the stocks of Software Cradle on December 15, 2016 and Software Cradle has become an MSC Software company.

Software Cradle is a Japanese firm highly valued as an innovative computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software vendor for automotive, turbomachinery, electronic, building and civil engineering sectors.

Cost reduction is a driving force in pump design. The manufacturing cost of centrifugal and mixed pumps generally varies with the volume of the pump. To reduce manufacturing costs, the pump diameter must be reduced for a given head which results in an increase in head coefficient.
